The Boss of the Yan Family in Siheyuan

A few days later, it was Sunday. Yan Jiecheng got up very early today and planned to go to Zuojiazhuang to buy two old hens from his cousin.

Xiao Ziwan and the others eat eggs every day, so it's okay now. But in a few months when the turmoil starts, Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li won't be able to provide enough food for even one child, let alone two children.

If they raise two old hens, how can they lay one egg a day? In addition to their family's ration, I dare not say that it is not a problem to feed them two eggs a day.

Yan Jiecheng got on his bicycle and ran towards Zuojiazhuang. An hour later, he arrived at the entrance of Zuojiazhuang Village. After thinking about it, he took out two bottles of Erguotou from the space. After all, it was not easy for him to bring nothing with him when asking for help.

"Cousin, open the door, I'll explain it." Yan Jiecheng stood outside his cousin's house and shouted.

"Ah! Jie Cheng, why are you here?" My cousin asked in confusion. At this young age, he really didn't know what Yan Jie Cheng was doing here.

"You open the door first, let's go in and talk."

When his cousin opened the door, Yan Jiecheng followed him into the house.

"Cousin, I saw a lot of people in our village raising chickens last time. I want to buy two and take them home to lay eggs this time." Yan Jiecheng went into the house and put the wine he brought on the table without even bothering with it.

Xu said directly and straightforwardly.

"If you want to eat eggs, you can just buy them ready-made. There is no need to raise them. Besides, you don't even have a place to raise chickens at home."

He has been to Yanbu Gui's house. There are more than 20 families living in a compound. The smell of chickens is very strong. Can other residents agree? Don't fight over this matter at other times.

"That was before, but it is different now. In the past few years, our family has bought several more houses. Half of the houses in the front yard belong to our family. It is not easy to find a place to raise chickens." Yan Jiecheng knew that his cousin might have misunderstood.

He quickly explained.

"I haven't been there in the past few years. It seems that your family's life is getting better. I still remember that a few years ago, your family didn't have enough to eat. Your father asked you and Jiefang to come over to exchange for sweet potatoes. I didn't expect that in just a few years,

Your family is getting better now." My cousin said with some emotion. Things have really turned around. The family that was so poor at the beginning became rich within a few years.

"I have to say thank you. If it weren't for your help in changing the sweet potatoes, our family would have been able to survive." Yan Jiecheng said sincerely. After all, people have helped in difficult times. If this were the people in the courtyard,

It's good if I don't step on you.

"Hey, what's the matter? How many years has it been? In the blink of an eye, you two brothers are already so old. Time is really not forgiving." The cousin looked at Yan Jiecheng and said with emotion.

"By the way, I didn't go to Jiefang's wedding. How is his wife?"

"Not bad, I also work in the factory." Yan Jiecheng didn't say much, and he didn't know much about this new sibling.

"That's good. It's easier to live a life with both working people." My cousin said with some envy.

Yan Jiecheng saw that it was getting late and said to his cousin, "You'd better go find me a hen quickly. I have to leave later."

"No, wait until you finish eating."

The reason why Yan Jiecheng came so early today was because he didn't want to eat at his house. After all, no one's family had much food at this time. If Yan Jiecheng took one more bite, his family would have to eat less.

"Cousin, please stop working so hard. You have to leave later. I have something else to do in the afternoon."

"Really? Don't fool me. Although my cousin doesn't have much food, it's enough for you to eat." My cousin looked at Yan Jiecheng in disbelief and said.

"Really, you better go quickly. By the way, last time I saw that the captain's house had a litter of puppies. Go and get one for me and I'll give you the money." Yan Jiecheng took out two dollars and handed it to him.

Cousin, he was too embarrassed to ask for it in vain. After all, rural dogs are also good things. They can be killed and eaten even if they are really hungry.

"Why are you thinking about raising a dog when you have nothing to do?" my cousin asked in confusion.

"I have long wanted to raise one. Isn't this a small child? Now that the child is older, it's just a good idea to have a puppy that I can play with and look after the house when I grow up." There were two big thieves living in the yard.

A dog is still necessary.

"Okay, just wait, I'll go right away." After saying that, my cousin went out to help Yan Jiecheng find old hens and buy puppies.

Yan Jiecheng sat on a chair and waited.

After waiting for more than twenty minutes, my cousin came back carrying two old hens and a puppy.

"Jie Cheng, what do you think of this little white dog? I got this one just for you because it looks energetic." My cousin said with a proud look on his face.

Yan Jiecheng took a look at it. He couldn't tell that he was not energetic yet, but he did look good. He was all white and without any stray hairs.

"Not bad, thank you very much, cousin."

"Hey, why are you so polite to me? I'll give you the money, and the old captain will give it to you." As he said that, his cousin handed over the two yuan that Yan Jiecheng gave him.

"Isn't this appropriate?"

"Hey, what's the point? Even if you don't want it, their family will have to give it away in a few days. One family can feed so many puppies. Okay, just take it." After saying that, Yan Jiecheng didn't care whether he wanted to give it to him or not.

He stuffed it in his pocket.

"Well, okay. If that's the case, then I'll take it." Yan Jiecheng couldn't resist but had to take the money back, thinking that he would have to return the favor when he brought two bottles of wine to the old captain the next time he came.

.

"Oh, that's right. I also brought this chicken for you. You can see how it goes." The cousin said and put the old hen on the ground.

Yan Jiecheng looked at the old hen flapping on the ground. He couldn't understand this either. So he said: "Since my cousin has seen it, it must be fine. Okay, cousin, I won't stay any longer. I have something to do later."

Okay, I'll leave first."

After saying that, Yan Jiecheng hung the two old hens on the handlebars and put the puppy in the basket. He was about to leave while pushing the bicycle. When his cousin heard that Yan Jiecheng said that he had something to do in the afternoon, he didn't stop him and helped Yan Jiecheng open the door.

When we returned to the courtyard, we were just in time for lunch. Since Yan Jiecheng was not at home, Yu Li had to make lunch.

Xiaozi Wan pouted, not good at cooking, and it seemed that he disliked Yu Li's cooking.

"Do you want to eat? If you don't want to eat, hurry up and get out. I'll see how uncomfortable you are." Yu Li shouted at the boy, "This little guy dares to think that his own cooking is unpalatable. If you have the ability, you can do it yourself."

"Go down, go down, and I will complain to you when dad comes back." After getting off the table, the boy Wan did not forget to threaten Yu Li.

"Hey, it depends on your ability. Tell your dad. Your dad is under my control. If you have the ability, just go and sue." Yu Lixiao laughed angrily at Xiao Ziwan's words and opened her mouth to say.

"What's going on?" As he was speaking, Yan Jiecheng opened the door and walked in.

"No, your daughter thinks my cooking is unpalatable, and she wants to complain to you and ask you to deal with me." Yu Li said with a malicious look on her face.

"Ahem, cough, Ziwan, this is your fault. How can you dislike your mother's cooking? Do you still want to buy some candies? You must know that your mother is in charge of our family's money.

, if you make her unhappy, can she still buy you candy?"

"Oh, I forgot." Xiao Ziwan said angrily, rubbing his head.
